TELL THE TRUTH.

Several gentlemen were few days ago
talking in our presence, about the false
hoods that are put in circulation about
Wichita, and wandering where they origi
mated. One of the gentlemen who is a
commercial traveller, gave it as his opinion
after investigation, that these lies all origi-
mated in Kansas City. He said many of
the stories sent out of this city, such as
bank failures, 1.-THE town in the hands of
the lawless element" 1.-The town over
flowed by the Arkansas river" and all such
foolish stories, were written by Kansas
City men, There is nothing new in this
to the EAGLE. We have been
frequently informed from different
sources, that commercial travellers repre-
senting Kansas City houses occupy about
one half their time in lying about Wichita.
If business men think there is anything to
be gained by this disreputable business let
them continue the habit. We have let this
matter pass for about the same reason that
we do not publish all the disgusting details
of murder trials. We do not like to make
public the conduct of people which out
RACES common decency, and tends to lower
the estimation of humanity. If this thing
continues, however, We will feel called
upon to state some unpleasant truths about
the little burg on the banks of the Big
Muddy" that will not tend to elevate her
in the estimation of reputable business men
or people in general who love justice and

AYERS
Cherry PectOral.

No other complaints are SO insidious in their
attack as those affecting the throat and lungs,
none so tritled with by the majority of suffer
crs. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from triling or unconscious ex-
posure, is often but the beginning of fatal
sickness. AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has
well proven its efficacy in a forty years fight
with throat and lung diseases, and should be
taken in all cases without delay.

The Louisiana Lottery

Some of the papers Of this state are
discussing the matter Of whether the
Louisiana State Lottery will die natu-
raj death by the expiration OF its char
or will it have to be abolished by an
amendment to the Constitution. There
is childish simplicity in the PROPOSE
ton that the Louisiana Lottery will
quietly fold its arms, close its eyes and
expire with the last day Of its chartered
existence without lively kicking and
scufiing for new lease Of life before
that fatal day arrives. The lottery came
to stay and it will stay until the order Is
issued from headquarters 1.-THE people,
commanding it to emigrate to some
other cline. And who will presume to
say that this order will ever 60 forth un-
less the matter Is ever kept before the
people a live issue. The man who is
opposed to the agitation OF this matter,
and who argues that it will die more
surely il let alone is a friend to the in
famous concern and really wants its ex-
istence continued. The truth OF the
matter ia, the Louisiana Lottery will
have to be killed if it is ever gotten rid
OF. 1t is certain not to die a natural
death. 1t was sufficiently powerful to
buy its way into the Constitution of the
State and will be found able to buy q
new lease of life when the time comes
for it. And IL allowed to do business I'M
interrupted until 1895 it will bodily own
the Louisiana State governm ent. The
only way to get rid Of the concern Is t.
elect a Legislature that can be depended
ON to take the matter in hand and see
that the people have a hearing on tn,
subject. By no means let the agitation
Of the subject cease. Let it be the issu
Of the next State campaign.-RustOl

Some outrageous things are done by
officials vested with judicial functions.
There is story Of case in a Louisiana
parish where when the Supreme Court of
the State had refused to reverse deci-
sion which consigned a criminal to ca
pital punishment, the police jury Of the
parish took up the matter and annulling
all decree, set the man free. We do not
vouch for the story however. The fol-
lowing case come from Virginia: A
young girl named Kyler, 10 years of age
living near GraysOn Sulphur Springs
Grayson county, was engaged to marry
an Englishman named Rudd, stopping
at the Springs. The time was fixed for
the marriage and all preparations made
when the girl changed her mind and re-
fused to marry him. The Englishman
applied to "Squires Alley and Frost for
a warrant to arrest the girl. They is
sued 1t, and the girl was brought before
them for answer to the charges preferred
whatever they were. She refused to
comply, but the justices insisted that she
must keep her promise or 60 to prison.
The frightened girl finally consented and
the ceremony was quickly performed:
II thk fOolkiller could not be brought in
to requisitiOn to dispatch these alleged
justices, the people should have tried
the virtue Of lynch law.-N.O. Picayune

TEE ATTEMPT.


The Last night that we ever spent to-
gether was q very quiet one. We sung
but little-only the usual number Of
hymns in our worship. But W talked
late and thoughtfully. We were never all
to meet again in this world, and the sha-
dow Of the separation was already upon
US.
The next day was long and tedious.
All usual exercises had lost their zest,
and we could do little but discuss in low
tones the coming effort. We would not
risk an attack in the morning, for that
would have given our enemies all day to
search for us. 1t was far better to wait
for evening, even II the day seemed well
nigh endless. Slowly the sun rose up,
reached the meridian and disappeared be-
hind the jail. W. watched the shadow
slowly moving up the hui opposite our
window till it had well nigh reached the
line on the summit that usually marked
our supper time. The hour was come!
We shook hands with a strong, lingering
clasp, for we knew not how many Of US
might bs cold in death before the stars
came out. Capt. Fry, who was tender
hearted as q child, wept at the parting.
he had two coats, and as he had irnme-
date use for one only he loaned the other
to me. It wa a wonderful boon, for I
was nearly destitute Of clothing. Every
thing that WI felt ought to be taken we
secured about us, so a moi to be in the
way of the coming struggle. We still had
on hand a lot of books belonging to Rev.
George MacDoncl, who had sent them in
not long before. We had not dared to re-
turn them for fear Of arousing suspicion,
and / carefully piled them I'm the corner
aud wrote him a mote thanLinoh him for
the use Of them.

CHAPTER XVI.


The next morning the Taller nut me
back in the room l had occupied with the
remainder Of my comrades. 1 was much
amused when he told me that a man had
put his hand over his mouth and nearly
smothered him, but he added, with great
seeming satisfaction: II bit his finger
terribly, and gave tho rascal a mark no
will carry to his grave" However, he
had not bitten ms severely rs he supposed,
as l had received only a slight scratch
that healed in 4 week or two. l had
always been rather a favorite with him,
and he had no suspicion that I was the
guilty person, us his fright had prevented
him from observing anything closely.
He spoke In strong complaint OF the in
gratitude OF our companions, saying thut
he had been kind to them, and this was
the return no got for It. Nhilo we re-
maiGcd with him he watched more closely,
though he supposed he was fiattcring us
by saying that he had no doubt the men
who had gono OIL were much worse thu7l
we.
Some time in the forenoon several
officers camc to see us in no mild humor.
and one roughly demanded tho course our
boys intended to travel. / had no deli
cacy whatever about giving tho informa-
ton; | even took a good deal of pleasure
In telling him that they had said that
Atlanta was in the middle Of what was
loft Of the Confederacy, and that they
were going to travel toward the outsidel
The officer was so we'll satisfied with this
Information that he asked no more cues.
